Last modified

CVE-2026-43400 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: add upper bound check on user inputs in signal ioctl Huge input values in amdgpu_userq_signal_ioctl can lead to a OOM and could be exploited. So check these input value against AMDGPU_USERQ_MAX_HANDLES which is big enough value for genuine use cases and could potentially avoid OOM. (cherry picked from commit be267e15f99bc97cbe202cd556717797cdcf79a5). EPSS estimates a 0.13% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
